5 found dead in Iowa home; 6th body found in van

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP)  A woman and her four children were found dead in their home Monday morning, and police later found a sixth body in a burning, wrecked van owned by her husband  a former bank executive who had been charged with embezzlement.

Iowa City police said they were all but certain that the body in the van was that of the husband, Steven Sueppel. A lockdown for city schools and an alert for the University of Iowa were lifted after the body was found.

Police Sgt. Troy Kelsay wouldn't release the names of the victims, but he confirmed they were Sueppel's wife and children, ages 3, 5, 7 and 10. Legal documents show Sueppel was married to Sheryl Sueppel.
